SupraMan Mk4 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Hi guys, Its looking increasingly likely that I will be selling my car come the summer. I can no longer put off moving out with my partner, she has already threatened to leave me a few times, but unfortunately it never comes to anything. My Q is - Is there anything worth doing to my car that will help it add/hold its value? With it only being an auto NA, engine mods are out the window. I was thinking of getting leather seats as I currently have the electric cloth in the front, and possibly replacing the plastic headlights with UK Glass. (Theres nothing wrong with them I just think it would improve the overall apperance.) But realistically would I just be throwing money away?? Input appreciated.

Matt H Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 If you're selling your car, don't spend money on new mods - you never get back from you pay for them? It might be worth looking for cheap second hand stuff though, but for all the money you spend on stuff, you could just knock it off the asking price?

j_jza80 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 A full service with itemised receipt, get the condition checked by an MOT station or the AA etc. Other than that, just spend time cleaning everywhere thoroughly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraMan Mk4 Posted February 17, 2011 Author Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thanks guys, general response seems to be to maintain the car (Which is done anyway.) With anything else being more of a luxury that will not weild a return. SO looks like that is the route I will take. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd even go so far as to remove any mods you have done - where possible - before selling the car and sell them off separately.
